applesauce

4 pounds apples (about 10 medium)
1 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
pinch nutmeg
pinch salt

Remove apple cores and chop into 1 1/2 inch chunks. Combine everything in a large pot; cover and cook over medium-high until apples begin to break down, 15-20 minutes. Press through a food mill and check seasonings and consistency.
 
No food mill? Just peel the apples beforehand and mash them in the pot after cooking. 
 
Delicious hot, warm, or cold on its own--but my favorite way to eat it is hot over vanilla ice cream. So good.
